Thanks Shorts, great to see what we missed out on and everyone having fun.

What was the story in what looks like someones shed with a lot of unfinished projects.

John, I will write an account of what went on when I can but to answer your question about the "shed" and "unfinished projects", that was up near Petawawa Ontario at the shop of one of the tour participants who invited us all for lunch at his place - an incredible place and an incredible gesture.

Slim I thought about that after the head lice thing but that ride was so cool and John that was a friend of Frank's real nice people put on a real BIG spread for all of us and all of his cars or real soild love that 57 two door wagon.The best part of the Tour for me was every thing but I have to say it's the people you meet and spend time with that make the tour a must do thing and wining a bet with Blood55 Curtis's father inlaw over Oldman Mike's 34 red Ford roadster not a Chevy and winning 100 bucks from Hortons Hot Rod parts now that is a GREAT sponsor of the Tour thank you to every one for a great weekend and if you missed it you just missed a great time.

Hey! I've seen most of these cars somewhere before....can't quite place it though. Great job once again by 'Shorts' & 'Skirts' - Thanks guys!

I hope everyone remembered to slip on over to Gatineau for cheap beer!!! (often on sale in grocery stores for $16.99 for the big box - always get one to drink when I'm there and bring one or two home!)

Mark, in your aerial shots you were right over my Sister-in-law's house on the Quebec side - I know the area pretty well. I go exploring every time we visit - you see quite a bit more when you're on foot.

Looks like everyone had a blast and that Ford Shop was making me all lusty I'll be expecting a full report on that shop.

You should of offerd to hold the camera while tinki winki I mean limbo king with the long pants did his impression of spiderman getting into the plane.
Priceless

I think he was reluctant to or unable to wear shorts after that ride in the by-plane he didn't want us to see those dark brown stains running down the back of his legs to his ankles ..he put on a brave face with his long pants on..
